Chinchilla History Hr. M. F. Chapman, a mining engin the jtop of the ineer, stationed rare-es- s indes Mountains, discovered the of this animal about the time of ie World War. He knew that short-- j after the turn of the century, sev-i- al santy, pelts had been export-- i each year. Chinchilla fur was then a important Chilian industry. He aw that by 1915 the number of st animals had dropped to fewer ian 5,000. That the red fox, newly sported into Chile, a natural enemy i the chinchilla, was killing them S faster than the trapper and by total extermination of this ani-from the earth appeared certain. The story about getting these ani-i!- s down from their 16,000 foot home in the tops of the Andes, ie journey by ship over the equator; ie settlement in California; the experienced in the change of imate and hemisphere the long hard niggle to learn what foods were ie best, what kind of a pen, etc, is history. After more than twenty ears experience they are now being ised most successfully in our inter- :ountain country. Ranches are dotted jre and there on the map of four ates, from Montana on the north th one, then Idaho with two, and "yoming with one, at this writing, 'ah has five ranches in Cache Val thousand al :517 el-ut- ed dif-culti- es ow Editorial ley, namely Smithfield, Hyde Park, Logan 2, and Hyrum. There are sev eral south of us. Ogden, Salt Lake, Price and Mt. Pleasant. The home ranch is at Inglewood, California. Out side of these mentioned there are but very few chinchillas in the world, the total being less than 2,000 animals at this time. To repopulate the world with this valuable little creature is the life's work of many wide awake chinchilla breeders, and it shouldn't be a bad occupation at $3,200.00 a pair for the increase. They litter three times a year and Bring from one to four ba bies to the litter. They are known to have lived 20 years. Their normal life span is not known at present. The ranches of chinchillas report from 100 to 200 per cent increase a year. At the increase rate of 100 per cent a pair per year (which is a very conservative figure) at the end of 10 years one could possess 412 animals. If they pelted and sold at the present market they would bring $103 000.00, enough for anyone to retire on. But they should bring the breeder price ($3,200) for at least 20 years. In conclusion it appears to me that since these animals are pioneered to this point that they are being raised successfully in our climate; that the world is waiting for them to be populated back to a fur production basis, that they are easily cared for and lend well to domestication, that the cost of feeding is only $1.50 per year; if one is looking for a side line that will probably make him secure for life, he sould investigate the enormous possibilities of the business of raising chinchillas.
